Watch Michelle and President Obama show their silly sides

March 13, 2015

The Obamas are always so cool and collected during their official duties that it was nice to see a different — sillier — side to them while they have been in Los Angeles. Both
President Obama and his wife Michelle made
appearances on the hottest talk shows this week and had a lot of fun while doing it.

Barack Obama appeared on
Jimmy Kimmel Live! Thursday
night to partake in a fan-favorite segment "Mean Tweets." Usually the
comedian has stars on his show to read the mean comments people have posted on
Twitter about them, but this week, he decided to have an entirely presidential
theme.

The politician read aloud nasty comments including,
"How do you make Obama's eyes light up? Shine a flashlight in his
ears." With a smile on his face, the 53-year-old had no problem poking fun
at himself.

And on daytime television, Michelle
was busy showing off her dance moves (which
Angela Bassett has seen firsthand) on the
Ellen DeGeneres Show. As part of
the First Lady's #GimmeFive social media campaign she helped create a dance to
Bruno Mars and Mark Ronson's "Uptown Funk," which she performed with Ellen and the
cast of
So You Think You Can Dance.

Watch Michelle's awesome dance moves below:

“We’re asking folks all across the country to #GimmeFive ways
their leading a healthy life," Michelle told Ellen on the pre-taped show that airs
Monday. "We’ve got a lot of celebrities involved.
Beyonce gave me five, and Ryan Seacrest and Nick Jonas and even the astronauts
on the space shuttle; the International Space Shuttle got involved. And we’re
gonna take over the
Easter Egg Roll this year with a
#GimmeFive dance and actually the
So You Think You Can Dance All-Stars
are coming to the
Easter Egg Roll to teach the whole south lawn this
dance.”
